Tips to remove pet urine stains and odour removal:
A) For fresh/new stains:
1)First things first, if the “leak” is fresh, it is recommended to blot as much as you can using a clean towel. Always blot, do not rub as rubbing will damage carpet fibers.
2) Make a cleaning solution with few drops of dishwashing detergent and water (1:2 ratio) and apply the solution on the spot. Let it sit for two minutes and remove excess solution with a clean towel.
B) For existing stains:
1) Combine two tablespoons of baking soda with a small cup of vinegar in a spray bottle. Apply the solution to the stained spot on your carpet and let it sit for five to ten minutes, experts recommend longer times depending on the severity and age of the urine stain.
Remove excess by blotting with a clean towel.
Immerse a clean towel in fresh water and dab over the surface.
2) Alternatively, baking soda can be sprinkled liberally on the soiled spot, and left overnight.
After the patch dries overnight, spray distilled white vinegar and dab gently to remove the stain.
Note: It is recommended to conduct a spot test before applying the baking soda and vinegar solution as they are both bleaching agents.
